My husband and I decided on a last minute date, asked someone from the area for a recommendation and this is where we ended up. We were able to walk in and sit where we wanted. When they delivered our appetizer, we both commented about the generous portion vs. cost. It was delicious. I chose a riblet special for dinner and my husband got something off the regular menu. They happily swapped out the sides that came with it for any other side I wanted. I also ordered a lemon drop....
Surprisingly good dinner and exceptional service. Stephanie M. was super friendly, anticipated our needs, made helpful recommendations, navigated dietary restrictions, and checked in just the right amount. Side salad was fresh and dressings were house-made and very good. Tri-tip was a generous portion. Server’s recommendation of ordering the steak Medium was right on, as it was somewhat pink - what some places would call Medium Rare. The berry cobbler was homemade and delicious....
First visit and went for the potato basil soup and grilled cheese sandwich. Soup was flavorful and thick in a nice potato way. Maybe next time can I get a bowl?
Most perfect grilled cheese I've had in years. Perfectly toasted, not greasy. Nice crunchy outside. Yes!!!
We shared a slice of key lime pie
Also very good, partner ate some of my share.
Much resentment on my part
Pretty quiet Wednesday night visit after 8 pm. No waiting.
